Following genotyping by multiplex PCR and MALDI-TOF MS, subsequent genotypic association and haplotype analysis identified three SNPs on chromosome 5 (rs3433846, rs17723799, and rs41291957) in MIR143 in moderately high LD, which together appear to confer protection against NHL in our GRC-GLP cohort. The gene discussed is MIR143; the disease is non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
